I barely have enough time to gasp in another breath before Damon’s mouth comes down hard on mine.
Damon kisses me, and my mind goes blank. Damon kisses me, and my brain cells rapidly start to explode, one after the other. Damon kisses me, and I just about lose every curl of sanity I managed to scrape up over the years.
It takes me a few seconds to sort myself out. But when I do, I don’t waste time thinking about all the reasons why this is the world’s shittiest idea. It’s too late for that. Too late for. So many things.
I kiss Damon back, and it’s. It’s. It is. It, just. Really. Is.
Because I didn’t. I didn’t know that it could be. Like. Like this.
It is though. It is.
If I was capable, I might laugh. Loud and hysterical.
Damon’s mouth is warm and wet, and my first coherent thought is his lips are wet because of the blood. I got him with a solid hit to the face earlier. I remember feeling satisfied when blood trickled out of his mouth and dampened his dry lips. We were avoiding hits to the face, yeah, but he left that one wide open. It would have been an insult to ignore it.
My second coherent thought is he doesn’t taste like blood. Not completely. There’s a hint of metallic, sure, yes, and a layer of something vaguely minty. But the rest is all spit. All him. Metal and mint and him. Uniquely Damon.
I make a sound that may or may not be a groan. I admit nothing, Your Honour.
Damon lets out a sound that might be an answering rumble. You’d have to ask him, Officer.
Damon’s fist in my hair tightens to the point of pain again, and I gasp at the suddenness of it. He uses that to deepen the kiss, his tongue sweeping inside my mouth to take temporary ownership of it. I let him, too caught up in the feel of having him pressed in against me, holding me down and overwhelming every one of my senses.
It happens fast, too fast, and then I’m done, I’m gone. Tipping over the edge and falling. Falling and falling and falling.
All I can feel and taste and think about is Damon. The world could up and disappear on us and I wouldn’t be able to tell you when it happened. Damon is all I know. He’s my new source of heat and light and oxygen, my entire universe reshaping and sharpening to a single point. A single person.
